And I don't get enough to enable the adaptive filtering to work.<BR/><BR/>If there was a configurable filter available to override the spam detector when certain keywords occur, it would help a lot.Paulhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04510654006534516365noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18157064.post-55985476128536439312007-09-23T08:58:00.000-07:002007-09-23T08:58:00.000-07:00I'm getting crazy with the false positive issue GM...I'm getting crazy with the false positive issue GMAIL tags my company mails (and I'm talking of single messages and not bulk share).<BR/><BR/>I don't know how to do.<BR/><BR/>At least they could have implemented a sort of complex sender identification procedure (so spammer wouldn't be interested in following it) to avoid companies to suffer from this kind of terrible issue.<BR/><BR/>I manage an Hotel and if a customer enquire me for an estimate, I send him a powerful HTML mail with all the rooms pictures.... <BR/><BR/>Well this mail is sistematically filtered and tagged as SPAM.<BR/><BR/>No hided code, no bulk sends, no pictures only messages....<BR/><BR/>Only an estimate.<BR/><BR/>If someone may kindly inform me on how to convince the GMAIL Spam Filters to let my mails slip on the Inbox of its users, I'll be very grateful.<BR/><BR/>Yes of course: my Hotel/B&B has got a name that can be misunderstood.<BR/><BR/>The Name is Venice Penthouse.<BR/><BR/>But should I change the company name to satisfy GMAIL criteria?<BR/><BR/>I don't think so.<BR/><BR/>My spamming mail (when you can write to) is info@venicepenthouse.it<BR/><BR/>Stefania Castelli<BR/>ItalyStefania Castellihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02555979111414710923noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18157064.post-1161455304246752182006-10-21T11:28:00.000-07:002006-10-21T11:28:00.000-07:00I am having problems with false positives (i.e., g...I am having problems with false positives (i.e., good messages being identified as spam).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18157064.post-1159875048694912572006-10-03T04:30:00.000-07:002006-10-03T04:30:00.000-07:00I don't know that I've ever received a false posit...I don't know that I've <I>ever</I> received a false positive in my personal account.Jonathanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04601865335500205871noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18157064.post-1159796807313137082006-10-02T06:46:00.000-07:002006-10-02T06:46:00.000-07:00I have to say with regards to this, I've been very...I have to say with regards to this, I've been very impressed. I get a lot of joke e-mails from friends, and so far only one (Out of about 3,000 in my joke folder) got false-positived. With regards to other e-mails, I very rarely have to either mark as spam, or mark as not-spam...<BR/><BR/>It's such an uncommon thing, infact, that when I do have to do it, it stands out; which when you consider the amount of spam that is received (About 40+ messages a day for me, sadly) is quite remarkable.<BR/><BR/>That being said, a couple of months back there was a brief spate of e-mails that got through which were spam but, because of their content (Apparently clips from books and such) did not get spam-filtered... but I don't have any problem with those now, and I've noticed that several have made it into the spam folder, so Google's adaptive filtering has done its usual impressive trick.<BR/><BR/>On the whole, much better than most spam filters I've used, even the really expensive onesLazerFXhttp://www.lazerfx.co.uknoreply@blogger.com
